It’s very interesting how out of all the Chapter Bosses/Dark World Leaders we’ve seen so far, our first ‘introductory’ villain is, in retrospect, an especially rebellious and unusual Darkner. King kinda, like, broke the norm before we even got a chance to understand the norm.
Y'know… both Queen and Tenna fully embrace their ‘Purpose’ in their own ways. Tenna is motivated by a feeling of having failed his Purpose as a television and wanting a chance to fix that, while Queen wholeheartedly believed that taking over the world would farther her Purpose as a computer to make Lightners happy… despite being antagonists, they still follow the basic conceit of the roles they are supposed to fulfill as Darkners.
King is the one who tried to actively reject his Purpose, actually rejects the usual dynamic between Lightners and Darkners, decided on a new Purpose for himself under the Knight’s service.
He’s a Playing Card, a thing meant to play and have fun with the Lightners, but having been barred from fulfilling this Purpose for reasons beyond his control when the Lightners abandoned all the toys in the Classroom, he decided to transform himself into a conquering overlord who will crash Lightners under his boot. He tried to choose who he is in this world.
He’s the one ‘Main’ Boss who has yet to be redeemed and befriended …not necessarily because he’s just So Horribly Irredeemably Evil to the Max… I mean he is kinda Terrible but that’s not the thing stopping him from self-improvement or making friends with our heroes.
It’s because in his eyes, befriending a Lightner will just be surrendering to the dynamics of Light and Dark that has brought him nothing but despair in the first place, the thing he was trying so hard to break. In a way, if he were to befriend Kris or Susie, he would just be conceding to the Purpose he was trying to reject.
On some level, out of all the ‘Main’ Bosses we’ve seen, he’s the one kinda closest to the outlook of a Shadow Crystal Boss. I suppose it’s no wonder that he was pretty fond of Jevil… he is the Chaos King, after all…
#Very interesting take aswell if you think he was wearing the mantle...#Kris's Headband a shield of the light just sitting in that closet that whole time#Used for the same purpose with a darkner as a so with a lightner
